Chapter 22 The Horrible Oz
"Although Luffy's plan is simple, it goes straight to the essence of the problem. As long as Moria is defeated, all problems can be solved, but if you want to defeat Moria, you must defeat all enemies in the way.
"The biggest threat on this island is not Moria or Luffy's zombies, but spiritual people with negative abilities. As a person with special abilities and negative abilities, she has the potential to destroy all of us if there is no accident. Ability, what should we do if we encounter her halfway?"
Su Wei directly stated the biggest threat that everyone really faced, and the few people running in front stopped when they heard her views on the negative ghost woman.
Everyone, including Luffy, temporarily stopped attacking and gathered around. Sanji lit a cigarette and smoked silently. Zoro was also silent. Franky, who had suffered a lot from Negative Ghost, did the same. Silent.
Knowing that it has attracted everyone's attention, Su Wei further emphasized, "Even in my heyday, I still have to stay away from those negative ghosts. So far, we have no effective way to deal with her."
"Didn't you say that I could save her?"
When everyone encountered negative ghosts when they first came ashore, Su Wei had some opinions on this. At that time, she thought that the salvation scriptures might have some effect.
"If you are proficient in Buddhism, you can save the souls of the dead, not the souls that have left the body. What's more, this soul is a special soul with superpowers. If we regard negative ghosts as out-of-body soul clones, salvation alone is It's unlikely to work, but maybe you can use this as a basis to find a way to defeat her. So far you haven't had direct contact with the negative ghost, so don't be so confident. The other party is not an ordinary little girl, you must treat her as one Look at it as the most terrifying existence on the island.”
Su Wei's words ruthlessly shattered the line's luck, but also gave him a way to win. Although he hasn't figured out what the solution is for a while, he is convinced that using vitality should be able to temporarily isolate the invasion of negative ghosts.
"You're right. So far, we really have no way to deal with those ghosts. Once we encounter them, we can only divide our forces to resist them. I hope your ability can have some effect on the ghosts, even if it just delays them to buy some time. As long as Luffy defeats Moria and takes back the shadow, victory will be ours."
Robin on the side also pointed out the key point of this battle. Only by holding Perona back and giving Luffy enough time to defeat Moria can everything end.
"Okay, there's no point worrying. I'll leave that ghost girl to you when the time comes."
Now the arrow has to be fired. No matter how scary the ghost girl is, everyone has to rush over. The key to victory or defeat lies in whether Luffy can be bought enough time to defeat Moria.
In the atrium ballroom, Moriah returned here after Oz went berserk.
The shadow of the Straw Hat boy is much tougher than expected, and there are actually many memory fragments from his life remaining. Although this surprised him a little, it didn't cause any trouble. Under his ability, it was only a matter of time before Luffy's shadow completely surrendered. Now he was waiting here for Oz to come back. As for the Straw Hat Kid, he should still be in a coma now. The two most powerful Straw Hat Pirates have been defeated and are no longer taken seriously by him.
Hilton, the bat zombie, came in a hurry. It is responsible for the monitoring and intelligence of the entire island, and is directly responsible to Moria. However, this subordinate often makes a fuss, which is the only thing Moria is dissatisfied with.
"Lord Moria, I have something important to report." The panting Hilton landed on the ground. Due to the lack of physical strength due to the long flight, his movements when landing looked like a salute to his master.
"Well, if you have anything to do, just tell me immediately. Don't panic."
Seeing this subordinate's anxious look, Moria felt inexplicably disgusted. In Hilton's eyes, there has never been a trivial incident on this island, and many of its reports are trivial incidents. But he also knows that Hilton is absolutely loyal. If no accident occurs, it will not be so panicked. It must be Something happened on the island.
"Lord Moria, the three straw hat boys who were thrown back on the ship were awakened by their accomplices and are now back. The zombie soldiers are no match at all. The most troublesome thing is that they all know the weaknesses of the zombies. Many of their companions It’s all been purified.”
"What, how could a person whose shadow was cut off wake up so quickly?"
He knew the power of the shadow fruit best. It was a bit incredible that three people woke up in such a short period of time. Under normal circumstances, people whose shadows were cut off would have to be comatose for two days before regaining consciousness.
Hogback, who had not yet left, was also shocked by the news. If the Straw Hats came back, Dr. Chopper would definitely come back to cause trouble for him.
"Lord Moria, there is one more thing I need to report to you. In addition to the Straw Hats, three other people also landed on the island with them. The reason why the Straw Hats were able to resurrect so quickly is because one of them, the Swordsman Nose Song, There is a great connection, he is the skeleton monster who caused a big commotion on the island five years ago, and it was he who informed the Straw Hat Pirates about the zombies' weakness of being afraid of salt."
"This is a small matter. With Oz, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter at all. You go outside and monitor Straw Hat Boy's movements for me, and report to me at any time."
Most of the zombies on the island are small minions with little strength. It doesn't matter to him now that he loses them all.
"Except for Swordsman Bi Ge, although the other two people who landed on the ship boarded the ship with the Straw Hat Pirates, there is no news about them in the intelligence we obtained before. One of them is very similar to the zombies on the island, so much so that I always thought he was a companion who was captured by the enemy, and the other was a beautiful woman with long black hair. So far, these two have not made a full-scale attack, and their strength is unknown."
Hilton added hurriedly, hoping to attract enough attention from the master.
"What is Absalom doing? Why not send generals and zombies to fight?"
Hogback thought of the general zombies who had not been dispatched, and asked Hilton about their movements. So far, all those participating in the battle are ordinary zombie soldiers, but none of the general zombies have participated in the battle.
"Lord Huo Guback, General Zombie was invited by Lord Abu to attend his wedding."
Hilton was one of the first members to become Moriah's subordinates, and he knew the relationship between the three weirdos best. He knew that Hogback would be angry after telling him about Abusa, so he explained it very carefully.
"What are you talking about? It's better to destroy the invading enemies as soon as possible." After hearing Hilton's explanation, Hogback became angry.
"Lord Huo Guback, I am just a zombie soldier, how dare you point fingers at Lord Abu."
"When you said that, I remembered."
Perona, who always carries a pink parasol wherever she goes, suddenly interrupted the argument between the two and said, "Those two people Hilton mentioned who were not in the intelligence, I met Straw Hat Boy and the others when they first arrived on the island. I passed them, but they were not on the wanted list of the Straw Hats, so I didn't take it to heart. Moria-sama, don't worry, no matter who they are, they will kneel down in front of my ability. They are just enemies. I just woke up early, so there is nothing to be afraid of. With my ability and my zombie soldiers, I can easily destroy them all. I will wait for them to arrive in the room downstairs and catch them all."
"Having said that, I feel a lot more relieved."
Hogback, who was nervous when he learned that the Straw Hats were resurrected, felt relieved. He knew very well how terrifying Perona's abilities were, and all those who were hit by her abilities never failed to give in.
"Why don't you go and kill them directly if you are waiting for them in the room downstairs?"
He became anxious when he heard Perona say that she would wait in the room for the enemy to arrive. Living in the vestibule, he would definitely encounter the enemy first. He was a little nervous when he thought about the possible revenge he would face from Dr. Chopper, so he had better prepare himself in advance.
Thinking of this, Hogback said to his master Moria, "Lord Moria, I would like to ask you for the command of two zombies."
"No matter who it is, you can just take it away."
Moria glanced at Hogbark strangely. Although he didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd, it was just two zombies, so he readily agreed.
Hogback, who had obtained the command of the two zombies, was completely relieved. He thought that when Dr. Chopper came to look for trouble, he was defeated by a zombie made of his partner's shadow. I don't know how he felt when he thought of this, Hogback revealed his face. With a sly smile, he began to look forward to meeting Dr. Chopper again.
At the same time, the zombie carrying Luffy's shadow broke the steel plate of the freezer and came outside after going berserk. Moria was indeed surprised that the awakened Oz retained such a strong consciousness of the original owner, but he was still extremely confident in his ability to control the shadows absolutely. It was only a matter of time before this disobedient zombie became completely obedient. Soon he will gain a powerful fighting force.
"Wow, it's so high. I want to climb up and have a look."
The zombie named Oz was observing the huge main mast in front of him, and suddenly came up with the idea of climbing up to see what was going on around him. Oz, whose Luffy personality has not completely disappeared, finally gave up using his rubber ability after using it many times to no avail, and began to climb up bit by bit with his bare hands.
In this counterattack, everyone once again divided into two groups.
Zoro and Franky teamed up to rescue Brooke who was fighting the Japanese warriors, and the remaining people served as the main force to help Luffy find Moria for a decisive battle.
Along the way, Luffy and Sanji were unstoppable in front, and the group had no choice but to follow behind and advance quickly. Although the two of them already knew the weaknesses of the zombies, for them, who were powerful in combat, it really made no difference whether they used salt or not. The zombies were chased around like sheep by the two of them.
"No, a ghost has appeared. Luffy and Sanji, get out of the way."
The thing that worried everyone the most happened. Several ghosts blocked the way at the end of the stairs ahead. Luffy and Sanji, who were so powerful, still couldn't resist the negative power of the ghosts and were knocked to the ground again. The unstoppable counterattack It also came to an abrupt end.
Everyone was shocked by the sudden change. Usopp reacted fastest at the critical moment. Seeing that Luffy and Sanji were about to be captured by zombie soldiers, in the critical moment, he fired several lead bullets to disperse the surrounding Luffy. The two zombies, and then rushed into the enemy group with Chopper to carry the two back. The two strongest men not only lost their ability to fight, but also became a liability. After rescuing the two, Usopp and Chopper turned around and ran away, trying to escape from the dangerous area where the ghost was.
The group that was a little slow had no choice but to purify the surrounding zombies as much as possible to support the two's breakout. There were too many ghosts. If you want to defeat the ghosts, you must first find their true bodies, otherwise you can't even think about it.
When the ghost saw a few people trying to escape, he followed closely behind them. If he didn't think of a way, everyone might have to answer here.
"How is this going"
At the moment of crisis, the situation suddenly collapsed, and the entire corridor suddenly collapsed. The group of people who were behind to take cover and Usopp, who was carrying Sanji, had no time to escape from the collapse area and fell together with the collapsing rocks.
"No, Sanji and the others fell."
"It's okay. Mr. Xing is here and everything will be fine for both of them."
The falling group quickly grabbed Sanji and Usopp who had no protection, and used the light body technique and the skills learned from Luffy to slow down the falling speed, so that the three of them would not be killed.
Sauron and Franky, who were running wildly on the arch bridge on the next floor, were also blocked by a sudden landslide in front of them. Rocks falling from above destroyed the road ahead, and they were forced to stop. The smoke and dust caused by the cracked rocks hitting the road ahead mixed with the thick fog, obscuring their sight. Although they were blind, the two of them heard Usopp's scream as he fell.
The smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and the visibility ahead became higher and higher. Sanji finally recovered from his negativity, and the three of them crawled out of the rubble in a panic. The collapse just now was too sudden, and they still haven't figured out what happened.
Seeing that the three people who climbed up from the rubble were safe, Zoro and Franky were relieved and focused all their attention on the strange wall that suddenly appeared in front of them. After the smoke and dust dissipated, a high wall appeared in front of them. If they couldn't find a way to open a passage, they could only return to the starting point and find a new path.
Zoro drew out his saber, came to the wall, and stabbed it in. From the feeling on his hand, he knew that this was no ordinary stone wall. Franky also fired a shot at the strange wall, but failed to cause any damage. In addition, the strange wall blocking the way fell from the sky, and both of them realized that this was no ordinary wall.
The three people who climbed up from the ground also saw the wall blocking the front. Usopp, the timidest one, immediately became panicked after seeing the front clearly. He recognized the true face of the unknown wall.
"Hey, what are you doing? That's not a wall at all, that's Luffy's zombie."
The dust settled and the vision became good. Everyone heard Usopp's scream and raised their eyes to the sky. Although I had already known that Luffy's zombie was a monster twice as tall as the giants, I was still stunned when I saw it for the first time.
Oz, who fell from the sky, patted the gravel on his body and stood up. Just a simple movement made the surroundings shake. Zoro and Franky's attacks only made him feel a little itchy on his back. Disturbed by the itching, Oz turned and glanced at the five little ones standing on the stone bridge.
Being targeted by such a huge demon, several people immediately became nervous and prepared for defense. How to defend against such a giant giant punching him? Except for Usopp, the other four people saw the true face of Luffy's zombie for the first time. The sense of oppression caused by such a huge demon was particularly terrifying. If this is what everyone must do If you face an enemy, how can you defeat it?
Now everyone has no time to think about this problem. The devil is already in front of them. They must fight or retreat. A decision must be made.
Oz turned around and didn't pay attention to the five tiny ant-like humans on the stone bridge. All his attention was attracted by a huge triangular stone on the bridge. It was a smashed corner of the roof, shaped like a huge three-cornered hat. Oz picked up the huge triangular stone and put it on his head as a hat. The rubble falling from Oz's fingers was all Bigger than normal people.
"Be careful"
Everyone thought that Oz was going to use stones as weapons, and they all went all out to prepare for the fight.
Oz, who put the triangular stone on his head, shouted a declaration that he would become the Pirate King, turned around and walked away, never paying attention to the five people on the bridge from beginning to end.
It was really humiliating to be completely ignored by the enemy, but they didn't feel despised at all. The size difference between the two sides was really too big.
Although Oz is gone, the pressure he brought to everyone has not diminished at all. The power that makes the ground shake with each step is really too terrifying. In terms of power alone, Oz has surpassed a group of people who have ever seen it. of all the horrors that exist.
"Is this Luffy's zombie? It's too big."
Even though Oz was far away, the five of them still felt frightened.
"The combination of Majin's body and Luffy's fighting ability is too terrifying."
The top priority is not to worry about Oz's affairs, but to do what can be done first. If there are too many lice and it doesn't itch, simply put Oz's affairs aside and save the bones first. The five people looked at the broken road in silence. The bridge deck destroyed by Oz's body was more than thirty meters long.
The few people were at their wits' end and were about to go back and find another way. Franky, who had been silent all this time, picked up the hammer he carried and built a stone bridge in a short time. If it weren't for the fact that a stone bridge was quickly formed in front of their eyes, the group could not believe their eyes. This technique was so ingenious.
"I thought you were joking, but I didn't expect your skills to be so good."
Thinking that they had encountered a similar situation last time, Yi Xing couldn't help but admired.
"That's right, as long as I'm around from now on, you won't have to fly across the stream anymore. Now that I think about you flying over the broken bridge, I still want to laugh. It's fifty meters wide, but you actually jumped eighty meters away. Haha. Haha." Franky mentioned the embarrassing incident of Yi Xing without politeness.
The five people passed through the stone bridge and arrived at the second floor of the atrium on the opposite side. After passing through the long steps, a gate blocked the way. Follow “songshu566” WeChat public account to see more
